This hobby siphons money. I work and my wife works part time with a baby on the way. She has been bugging me ever since I bought my CEN. I told her I didn't want to race, but then I did. I spent tons. The good news I have tools and things and can race once a month spending around $100.

I may get a part-time job on a weekend when the baby comes, this has been so rewarding and so much fun.

The CEN is a good buggy. The cheapest price is eBay. Also, there is a guy on eBay who disassembles them and sells the parts dirt cheap. The available hop-ups indicate what will break.
